Since dangling this particularly attractive carrot before us back in 2011, Jaguar has always referred to the C-X16 as a "concept," but the reality is that in late 2012, when the £50K "production" C-X16 lands, it will be just as sexy and just as fast as the concept promised.Essentially, we’re looking at a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 unit -- with an F1-derived KERS booster button mounted on the steering wheel, no less -- that’ll propel this damnably desirable two-seater from 0-62 mph in 4.4 seconds and on to glorious 186 mph top end.Jag’s stylish new compact superstar threatens to make Porsche’s 911 Carrera (also due in 2012) look like an also-ran.
